I don't think I have seen a single reasonable take from mstdn.social.

They cannot be humans. I refuse to believe that it isn't an AI instance

Yes, it is a convention, in the same way as 2 is by convention a symbol double of value from 1.

We could use a different symbols, but these ones do go with the assumed meaning.

That is what I call a "castling" problem.
Chess has a defined moveset for all figures. You can move one piece at a time, and the game is clear for everyone. Yet, 900 years ago, an asshole pulled a move out of his ass to win a game, and claimed, that it's a "traditional move that everyone knows about".

So, since then, there are still people who actually learn the move just because they are too scared to state the obvious.

6÷2*3=
In case you want to argue about the order of operations in division, you can also convert this line to a form of pure multiplications
6*0.5*3 = 3*3 = 9.

Are you happy now?

@Awoo
No. It's 9.
Of course it's 9. This is a primary school excersise.

6÷2(1+2)=
6÷2*(1+2)=
6÷2*3=
3*3=9

The problem is, that boomers do forget the "official notation" after a few decades, since they don't need it.

@beardalaxy
I am not sure I like the idea.
I have 500h in Factorio. That would put the game wayyyyyyy beyond even the trashiest of games.

Why not enjoy the gems, that actually do deserve the time?

@icedquinn
Yeah, thanks for warning :omegalul:
I meant, that I spent a week with her, and there are some lines, where she doesn't even realize are pure social poison.

If Eugene lifts that suspension, I'll lose one of my favorite gags

The programming is to think, that Russia is the only participant of the war.

The programming is, that the rape is a significant part of the damage, instead of thousands of lost lives every single day.

But suuuuuuuuuuuuure. Women are the primary victims of war.
